Way to temporarily disallow remote content exceptions to save data while traveling?
I'm about to travel for over three weeks, and I'll be paying for internet usage by the MB most of the time. When I check messages in Thunderbird, I'd like to prevent remote content from loading - I don't need to see all those images and such during that period. The global "Allow remote content in messages" setting is already off, but I have many "exceptions", and I don't want to just delete all the exceptions and start over allowing them one by one after I get home. Ideas?

Try this:
- exit thunderbird and copy the permissions.sqlite and content-prefs.sqlie files elsewhere
- now, restart thunderbird and click to settings>privacy&security and click the exceptions button and adjust as desired for the temporary restrictions
- at end of the temporary period, exit thunderbird and copy the backed up files back and then restart thunderbird
Okay, that makes sense. (I had to look up what those files do, but it sounds about right.) I'll give it a try when I'm about to go on limited internet, and I'll mark your reply as the solution if it works.
